New Politics – Color Green

A three-letter word You didn’t need a reason You played your cards He took what he needed

And now you’re running wild with the horses On open fields, you’re feeling free Rose petals on an empty bed You’re holding on to a teenage dream Dancing in a wedding dress but it is only in your mind

Color green, the grass is red from all the cherry trees Velveteen, so sweet and soft she’s falling with the leaves

The painful truth you’ll have to let him go Tears don’t last long no I’m here to let you know

I still love you with all of my feelings So much I can’t count the ways now I’d die for you a million times And I hope that echoes through the end of time

The idea scares me knowing one day you’ll grow up Will I embrace the change like seasons come and go? I want to be there when you take your first steps and watch you climb to the top of a mountain Treasure life in a million ways let your dreams and your heart light the way
